  1. USB is for RGB as well as pump and fan speed control. SATA is for power. The fan header connection is there to provide a fan tach signal to the motherboard to prevent a CPU fan warning on boot ... it'll also give you that warning if the pump is completely failed so I do recommend putting that on the CPU_FAN header so you get that warning.
  2. Nope. Corsair has been mum about HydroX except for a little teaser at the end of the year last year. You can, interestingly enough, set up one of your Ligthing Channels on a Commander Pro or Lighting Node Pro as HydroX ...
  3. That doesn't sound good. I'm inclined to think that you have a faulty cooler. However, one thing to do is to check the fan header that it's plugged in to. This header supplies all of the power for the pump and must be on full power at all times (to make sure it gets the full 12V). Check out the Liquid Cooler FAQ at http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=174442.
  4. You can't plug the fan directly into anything on that motherboard. Check out the RGB FAQ at http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=173880. Depending on what Aorus you have, you might be able to get an adapter for the HD fan. Contact this guy at https://www.ebay.com/str/piratedogtech.
  5. Corsair fans DO NOT support Aura. Corsair has their own ecosystem based around iCUE. The connectors also do not work though adapters are possible.
  6. For the fan speed control, you should connect them to the cooler's fan controller. For the RGB, you can connect to the fan's RGB controller or to an RGB Fan Hub that is then connected to the Commander Pro.
  7. Yes, that's what you would need to do. The Corsair ML-RGB fan multipacks come with both a Lighting Node Pro and an RGB Fan Hub, which should be all that you need. Check out the RGB FAQ at http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=173880. That has all the details.
  8. The ML360R fan hub won't work with Corsair fans. At all. You can have up to 6 fans on a single Corsair RGB LED Fan Hub. The multipacks of the LL fans come with this and a Lighting Node Pro. Check out the RGB FAQ at http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=173880 for more details.
  9. There is an issue with Corsair Link not reading the temps of the Ryzen 2000 series CPUs correctly. This is because the final version of Link was released before (or perhaps just after) the Ryzen 2000 CPUs were released and the version of CPUIDSDK that is included doesn't support these CPUs. This is not going to be fixed. At this point, I would ignore the temp reading from Link and use Ryzen Master or other software that does support this CPU. iCUE will give you a correct temperature but it doesn't support your cooler.
  10. Yeah, I'm fairly certain that the warranty is voided. As you've discovered, these parts aren't something that you can easily come by.
  11. Fair enough. But doing that you do lose control over the cooler's RGB as well as monitoring of the pump temperature. And while controlling the fans based on CPU temps is workable (particularly if you are smart about your hysteresis), the proper temp variable for radiator fans is the coolant temperature. You can't get that using the motherboard.
  12. Hey there! DevBiker here. I'm well versed in the Corsair RGB and AIO world and am on the community iCue beta team.

      Ok. Can you answer me why the Icue still can't remember the rgb settings if the program doesnt run?

      Example:

      If using corsair link, even if i close the program, or even in bios, the rgb settings remain.

      If using Icue, if i lock my pc or close the program it goes to rgb vomit.

      It disconnects all devices so they go back to default.

      It's a common complaint and something that they are looking to address. No ETA, however.

  13. Ideally, yes, they should be in the controller. I'm a bit more concerned that the cooler isn't showing up in Link. That one should, at least as long as the USB is connected. Look for the Corsair USBXP driver in Device Manager ... it may need a little kick ... disable and then enable it. I would recommend going to iCue if you are using LInk but you'll lose your fan curves. If moving from Link to iCue, look here for a tool to transfer the fan curves:
  14. Which H115i do you have? There are several variations. The newest (the H115i Platinum) won't show up in Link; you'll need iCue for that. The earlier versions show up in Link as long as you have the USB plugged in (or should, at least). And you should have the fans connected to the cooler. That will allow Link/iCue to control the fans via the onboard controller and the controller to do it based on coolant temp when Link/iCue isn't running.
